Evaluation of the Benefit of the H'Ability Home Device Used in Supervised Self-rehabilitation at Home on the Autonomy of Post-stroke Patients
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 22 Sept 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the benefit of the H'Ability Home device used in supervised self-rehabilitation at home on the autonomy of post-stroke patients. Participants will perform their self-rehabilitation exercises at home using a virtual reality headset incorporating H'Ability Home software for 6 weeks during the experimental phase. This phase will be compared to a 6-week control phase at home, with self-rehabilitation exercises presented in a paper format.
